4. Allow to cook for about 20-25 mins. Meat should be soft enough to easily chew and broth still in the pot. (Notice that no water was added. Meat/chicken produce their own water while cooking but if this feels odd to you, you can add very very little water.)

5. To be certain the meat is fully cooked, slice a piece and see that the inside isn’t red or looks raw. Always ensure you cook meat, chicken, fish fully to prevent transmission of any disease/sickness common to half cooked products.

Meat is ready to be used. The broth is always very tasty and used a lot to cook other things such as stews, soups and even jollof rice.
